Gina Gershon in Conversation
Actress and author Gina Gershon discusses four decades in film, TV, and theater, plus her newest memoir AlphaPussy, at City Arts & Lectures.
Why we picked this
Gershon has spent four decades refusing to be typecast — from Bound to Broadway to Carnegie Hall. This is the unfiltered version of that story.
Gina Gershon has built one of the more unpredictable careers in Hollywood. Over four decades, she has moved between film (Bound, Showgirls, Face/Off), television (Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Riverdale), and theater, including David Mamet productions and Sam Mendes’s Cabaret on Broadway.
What makes the evening worth attending is that Gershon’s range extends well beyond acting. She began as a musician and dancer, has performed at Carnegie Hall alongside Sting, Laurie Anderson, and Joan Baez, and has written both children’s books and memoirs. Her newest, AlphaPussy, explores her Hollywood journey with the candor you’d expect from someone who has never played it safe.
